• "To start with the positives, the property is located in a great place for getting into Whitby."

  You walk down the bank for 10-15 mins and you are right in the centre. You do need to be fit though because the bank is extremely steep to come back home. Its a good location for going further afield (I would highly recommend Scarborough and Robin Hoods Bay). Unfortunately, there were alot of negatives with this property. It wasn't clean enough to the standard I was expecting, for example every single room had cobwebs in the corner of the room, the kettle had heavy scale, the iron had scale which transferred to your clothes when you used it (and leaked everywhere!). There were 3 trays provided for the oven and only the smallest one actually fit in. The shower in the bathroom was terrible, water leaked out of the bottom of the shower and hardly any came out of the head. There was a chunk out of the bath and the living room radiator. The house must be suffering from issues with damp as the entrance hall and living room walls were visible wet at the bottom. The neighbours were extremely loud, shouting and screaming at each other on a morning. I wouldn't recommend this property to others and wouldn't stay again, it's a real shame as it has potential to be so much better.

  Thank you for taking the time to give feedback its very much appreciated so that we can action points highlighted. Kind Regards Helen Property Owner

  It was super clean, had everything we needed and was in a good location. We loved using the farmhouse style kitchen for the meals we had in the house, the table was the perfect size for our family. The kids loved the games in the living room (Buckaroo is now on our daughter's birthday wish list!) and the beds were very comfortable. We would love to visit again and would recommend to all. Many thanks!

• "We had a lovely stay at The Tannery."

  The cottage was really clean and comfortable and had a real homely feel. The autumnal touches of pumpkins (real and decorative) and fresh flowers were lovely. It was also really nice to get a welcome pack of local treats! The cottage was really well equipped and had everything we needed for 5 adults and a dog. The area where the cottage is situated was perfect for us. Just a 10-15 minute walk into town and right on the bus route if the legs needed a rest! It was lovely to get a message from Helen to say that the cottage was ready for us earlier than expected and we were free to check in when we were ready. We would not hesitate to book The Tannery for our next visit to Whitby!

  It is really well equipped and well appointed for the town and surrounding areas. Unfortunately we had the hottest day on record during our stay, so had to purchase a fan and pretty much stay indoors until the temperature dropped. This didn’t spoil our stay though-we just made up for it on the other days and enjoyed the cottage all the more being inside! The welcome basket was a lovely gesture too as were the lovely fresh flowers. Would highly recommend a stay at The Tannery.

  Lovely hamper on arrival but hard to distribute around lots of people e.g. 4 guests. In general, everything was clean ish but decorated nicely. Had trouble with doors as they kept swinging open and bang which wasn't ideal at night time. The toilet seats were all crooked. But overall was a nice stay with a few minor tweaks!

• "Lovely house very clean and tidy."

  In a residential area just outside Whitby centre. A not to far walk from the centre one way on the cinder way then we went to Ruswarp the other way. But be aware the steep uneaven steps make it hard going. But we are over 70. Couple of draw backs, the dishwasher top drawer was broken so we didn’t use it, then later found it also had a leak, the toilet seats were very unstable. The beds all could do with new mattresses. The big minus though was being mid terrace we had three screaming kids on one side and a boy kicking a football for hours against the walls on the other. We could have complained but didn’t want to upset the locals, but could put us off going there again. A suggestion to the owner if a cupboard was installed in the alcove to the right of the chimney breast, glasses could be put there, then the other cupboard could be used to put food in,

• "I would highly recommend the Tannery."

  It is the perfect base to explore Whitby and North Yorkshire. It was only about a 15 minute walk to Whitby harbour which was brilliant when you have children with you! The house itself was immaculate and very clean. All beds were extremely comfortable for a good nights sleep. The house had everything you would need in terms of cooking and cleaning, the lovely owners also left a very nice welcome hamper and some dog treats which was a lovely surprise! There is also a lovely big dining table for family meals. Although there are neighbours either side with it being a terrace we never heard them and wouldn't have even known they were there. It really was a fantastic place to stay and a very lovely break after all of the lockdowns, we will definitely be back! Thank you for having us!

  After a long journey from Bedfordshire with train delays, we were pleased to see the place filled with necessity that you would want for 3 active children. Helen even left us some milk, juice in the fridge so that we could relax on a Sunday evening with most of the shops already closed. Plus there were delicious home made cup cakes, which were nicely arranged on the cake stand but quickly scoffed down by the hungry mob in no time! Gonna love the Yorkshire hospitality:)
